Early Literacy Interventions #1: Florida Assessments for Instruction in Reading Tool

Resources.  We need them to be effective at what we do; we also need them to be easy and engaging for both student and teacher.  Which is why I am putting out this series of blog posts.  Every few days I am going to highlight a resource on our shared Early Literacy Interventions website to give you an idea of what's in it and how it can work.  Here's our website:

Today's resource can be found in the "red" section of the symbaloo page above.  It is the Florida Assessments for Instruction in Reading search tool.  The tool allows you to search for reading intervention teaching videos in a variety grades and literacy categories.  Simply choose the grade, and the skill, then click "Show results."  Videos are short and show a teacher demonstrating the strategy in a small group.

Doing a quick search for alliteration and word awareness in 3rd grade gave a flash video showing a teacher using alliteration with a small group.

   Make sure to check out the FAIR search tool by clicking above.  Don't forget to Bookmark the symbaloo page above for easy access.
